Gåstorget.

In 1730, city engineer Johan Eberhard Carlberg proposed that spaces for horse-drawn vehicle should be created at various locations though to the city, mostly to facilitate the fire departments wagons.

 

In 1796 such a space was created on the Gåstorget.

 

Altough the square was not given an official name, it was informally referred to as Gåsplan ("Goose Plain") or Gåstorget.

 

The small square measure only approximately 100 sqm.

 

Based in the far corner, there is a kebap & cafe place, named Jerusalem, which is a decent place for a cheap middle-eastern style lunch, or a coffee.
